As per case facts, Charu Sharma, a Law Researcher, met with an accident where her Activa Scooty was hit from behind by a vehicle, and then an offending bus drove ... over her, causing grievous injuries. Both the Insurance Company and the claimant appealed the Tribunal's award. The Insurance Company challenged the negligence finding and compensation quantum, citing inconsistent FIR statements and non-impleadment of all tortfeasors. The claimant sought higher compensation for various heads. The question arose whether the FIR's version or Tribunal's evidence takes precedence, if non-impleadment of tortfeasors is fatal, and how to assess compensation for functional disability and future prospects. Finally, the High Court ruled that Tribunal evidence outweighs FIR discrepancies, non-impleadment of all tortfeasors isn't fatal in composite negligence, and confirmed functional disability allows for future prospects. It modified the award, increasing overall compensation.
